Football Feast, Starting From the Acquisition of European Clubs: Chapter 212 How can you have such a weird team member?

   Chapter 212 How can I have such a weird team member?

   For the Premier League championship match against Arsenal, Chen Ran not only threw out huge championship bonuses to motivate the players, but naturally he also sent all the main players.

   And like a core player like Vieira who has been fighting continuously, Chen Ran quietly used the "Level 1 Healing Card" for him.

   Center Tony

   Left midfielder Cristiano Ronaldo, midfielder Modric, right midfielder Ribery

   Vieira, midfielder, Yaya Toure

  Left-back Chiellini, centre-back Gareth Southgate, centre-back Vidic, right-back Maicon

   Goalkeeper Cech

   On Arsenal's side, although they were stole the limelight by Crystal Palace's 10 million euros championship bonus, Chelsea did not recover the 4 million euros winning bonus.

   Surprisingly, the FA didn't comment on Chelsea's actions, as if it didn't even exist.

   Now, everyone knows that the FA has acquiesced in Chelsea's behavior.

   And Arsenal's players are naturally gearing up to win this huge bonus.

   Now everyone knows that Arsenal is tight on money, and the salary of an Arsenal player is naturally not high.

   Coupled with the poor performance of the team, the bonuses are also pitiful. The winning bonus offered by Chelsea is still very tempting for Arsenal up and down.

   Seeing the high morale of his players, one by one, scrambling to play, Wenger was dumbfounded.

   These guys are really realistic. If they were so full of fighting spirit earlier, wouldn't Arsenal even get a place in the Champions League next season?

   Of course, Arsene Wenger will not stop him when it comes to making money. He has also dispatched Arsenal's best lineup.

   Forward Henry, Bergkamp

  Left MF Pires, MF Hleb, MF Gilberto Silva, MF Ljungberg

   Left-back Ashley Cole, center-back Campbell, center-back Kolo Toure, right-back Lauren

   Goalkeeper Lehmann

  Although the game is nominally played at the home of Crystal Palace, Arsenal's players at Highbury Stadium are much more familiar than those of Crystal Palace.

  Except for more Crystal Palace fans who came to watch the game, Arsenal's players did not have any discomfort.

  The two teams have played against each other many times, and they are already very familiar with each other. So there was no temptation. As soon as the referee blew the whistle to start the game, the two sides launched a fierce confrontation.

It is not without reason that    football matches are hailed as wars in peacetime.

   There is still a big difference in combat effectiveness between a team that pursues a sense of honor and a team that just wants to make money.

   This is especially evident at critical moments.

  Arsenal has now lost the hope of competing for the championship, even the Champions League place, and there is no possibility of relegation. It can be said that there is no desire.

   Without the excitement of Chelsea's €4 million win bonus, Arsenal's players would certainly not be working as hard as they are now.

   However, this also makes today's arsenal very much like a mercenary fighting for money.

   This is reflected in the game, that is, whenever players on both sides need to fight against each other, even at the risk of injury, the first one to back down is always the Arsenal player.

   The reason is very simple, the season is coming to an end, and many of Arsenal's main players have begun to contact their next home and want to transfer and leave Arsenal.

   After all, it is a well-known fact that Arsenal is short of money now. Staying here will not see any hope of winning the championship, nor will it be possible to get a high salary.

   There is no money or honor, so who wants to stay here?

   Therefore, at this critical moment, no Arsenal main player is willing to pay the price of injury to compete with the Crystal Palace players.

  Chelsea's high win bonus is good, but compared to its own transfer opportunities, it is not worth mentioning.

   As a result, everyone found out that Arsenal's players held it for less than ten minutes at the beginning of the game, and the entire formation was pushed back into their own half by Crystal Palace.

   Wenger on the sidelines did not find problems. But when he shouted a few times and found that it didn't work, he didn't bother to shout any more, and simply went back to the bench and sat down.

   "Boss, why don't you direct the game? Our current situation doesn't seem to be good."

  Assistant coach Pat Rice whispered to Wenger's ear.

   "Pat, it's useless, these guys are no longer in Arsenal's mind."

   The thoughts of these Arsenal players on the field, Wenger, an old Jianghu, can clearly think about it after a little thought.

   These guys are probably all contacting the next family and want to leave Arsenal, so no one wants to be injured at this time.

   If you don’t want to get hurt, you will have reservations about doing actions.

   has some reservations about his actions, so how could he possibly grab the ball from the Crystal Palace players?

   If you can’t grab the ball, how can you win this game?

  Just like this, Wenger had already foreseen the result of the game after only ten minutes of the game.

   He is very clear that people are scattered and the team is not easy to lead. This is not a problem that he can solve as a head coach.

   On the other side, Chen Ran, who also saw the situation on the field in his eyes, smiled slightly. There should be no problem in this game.

   Hehe, Mourinho wanted to use silver bullet tactics to stimulate Arsenal players, but unfortunately he didn't take into account what these Arsenal players really wanted.

   He gets nothing but a farce.

   Turning to look at the Arsenal bench not far away, Chen Ran found that Wenger was no longer standing on the sidelines directing the game, but returned to the bench and sat down.

   It seems that Wenger, an experienced old man, is also a sensible person, he is too lazy to do useless work.

  Since Wenger gave up early, Chen Ran, who already knew the game, decided to go back to the bench and sit for a while.

   After all, standing on the sidelines watching the game all the time is tiring.

   "Huh? Boss, why don't you continue to direct the game?"

   "Oh, Josep, go to the sidelines and watch the game for me, I'll take a break."

   "Ah? Boss, this game is about whether we can win the championship ahead of schedule."

   "Relax, Josep, we Crystal Palace won this game!"

   patted Guardiola on the shoulder, Chen Ran walked straight back to the bench, leaving only Guardiola, who was a little dazed, standing alone on the sidelines.

   The progress of the game was almost completely in accordance with Chen Ran's vision.

After being pushed back to half-time by Crystal Palace, Arsenal were never able to get out.

   In the 38th minute, Ribery on the right made a pass from the bottom, and Tony in the middle flanked and grabbed a shot, which was saved by Lehmann.

   As a result, the ball did not fly far and landed at the feet of Modric outside the penalty area. Modric made a good volley, but Lehmann was unable to save, and the ball flew into Arsenal's goal.

   "GOAL!"

  Crystal Palace lead Arsenal 1-0.

   During the intermission, neither Chen Ran nor Wenger made any substitution adjustments.

At the 62nd minute of the second half of the game, Ronaldo on the left staged a good show of riding alone. After passing Hleb, Lauren and Kolo Toure in a row, he shot hard and broke again. The Arsenal goal guarded by Lehmann.

   "GOAL!"

  Crystal Palace lead Arsenal 2-0.

   At this time, Wenger couldn't sit still.

   It’s okay to lose, but you can’t lose too much. He is also the top coach in English football anyway, so he needs face.

   However, Wenger did not choose to add defensive players, but made adjustments to offensive players.

   He replaced Bergkamp with Van Persie and Pires with Reyes.

   Wenger thought very clearly, of course winning this game is good, and losing is irrelevant. It would be better to give it a go and fight against Crystal Palace to the end, maybe there will be unexpected joy or not necessarily.

   Arsenal's substitution action immediately caught Guardiola's attention.

   "Boss, Arsenal's substitution is to continue the attack."

   "Well, it's almost a two-goal lead. Josep, you go and tell Mascherano and Evra to warm up, and then use them to replace Modric and Tony."

"Mascherano, Vieira and Yaya Toure formed the back three, Evra replaced Ronaldo as the left midfielder, and then let Ronaldo play as a single striker in front. The team has contracted the formation and now starts to play defense. counterattack."

"clear."

   For Chen Ran's routine, now both Guardiola and Crystal Palace players have long been used to it.

   Soon, Crystal Palace completed a series of actions of substitution and evolution.

   Taking advantage of the gap between substitutions, Chen Ran called Ronaldo to the sidelines again.

   "Chris, you're going to play a lone striker in a while, I'll give you the right to fire freely, you can play whatever you want, understand?"

   "Okay, boss. But, I won't be like last time, and then there will be three consecutive downturns, right?"

   If it was before, Ronaldo would be very happy to hear that Chen Ran gave him the right to fire freely.

   But since the last time Chen Ran used the "Level 1 Chicken Blood Card" to train Ronaldo, Ronaldo is now somewhat taboo about the right to fire freely.

   "It's okay, I'll help you keep an eye on it. According to my observation, with your current state, there will be no downturn for the time being. You can play with confidence, I have everything."

   "Okay, boss, I'm relieved with your words."

   Looking at Cristiano Ronaldo who was relieved, Chen Ran patted him on the shoulder, thinking that this child will not be fooled by himself and lame, right?

  Crystal Palace's active contraction gave Arsenal a chance to breathe.

   But when they first wanted to attack again, Cristiano Ronaldo, who is now a single arrow, gave them another blow.

  Cristiano Ronaldo is in good shape today, he just scored a goal by riding alone not long ago. Now that Chen Ran is transferred to play a forward striker, there are more opportunities for individuals to break through with the ball.

   This time, when Ronaldo passed Hleb and Lauren once again, Kolo Toure, who came over to make up the defense, decided that he couldn't let him pass any more.

  So, not far outside the restricted area, Colo Toure brought down Ronaldo. At the same time as getting a yellow card, he also gave Crystal Palace a free kick in the frontcourt in a good position.

   "Boss, I want to take this free kick!"

  Cristiano Ronaldo, who got up from the ground, rushed straight to Chen Ran on the sidelines under everyone's astonished eyes.

"you?"

  Chen Ran also looked at Cristiano Ronaldo in surprise. At this time, Cristiano Ronaldo had not yet developed his free kick skills.

   "Yes, boss, didn't I score a direct free kick last time. I've been practicing free kicks myself for a while now. This ball is in a good position. I want to try again."

   Hearing Ronaldo's words, Chen Ran also remembered that he used the "Free Kick Master Card" for Ronaldo last time, allowing Ronaldo to score a crucial free kick.

   It seems that that free kick made Cristiano Ronaldo interested in taking free kicks.

   "Okay, then you can play this ball and try to score another one."

   Chen Ran readily agreed to Ronaldo's request.

Because Crystal Palace does not have any outstanding free-kick masters, the team's first set-kick taker is Modric, but now that Modric has been substituted, Ribery usually takes the lead at this time. penalty.

   "Haha, thank you boss."

  Cristiano Ronaldo, who got permission from Chen Ran, ran back to the court excitedly and snatched the ball from Ribery.

   "Frank, the boss agreed with me to take this free kick."

   "Chris, what are you doing? I usually take free kicks when little Luca is away."

   "I know, so I ran to the boss to apply for the free kick. If you don't believe me, ask the boss."

   Hearing Ronaldo's remarks, and thinking that this guy did run to the sidelines to find Chen Ran just now, Ribery also believed that Ronaldo was telling the truth.

   However, he is not a good stalker, and he doesn't eat Ronaldo at all.

   "It's a game now, how can I have so much time to run and ask the boss? I'll take the ball, how about the next one?"

  Ribery smiled slyly and used a delaying tactic.

  Cristiano Ronaldo is not stupid, the next free kick may not necessarily have such a good position.

   "How about we guess the fist? The winner takes the free kick."

  C Luo thought about it, this scarred face doesn't look easy to mess with, so he came up with a compromise.

When   Ribery heard this, he felt that this method was not bad, so he nodded in agreement.

   After all, he didn't want to fall out with Ronaldo over a free kick, and it was only with the prior consent of the boss.

   Next, there was a funny scene on the field.

   Under the watchful eyes of tens of thousands of spectators, Ronaldo and Ribery stood next to the ball for three rounds of intense boxing ceremonies.

   In the end, Ronaldo beat Ribery with a fist to the scissors and grabbed the right to take the free kick.

   "Boss, what are the two of them doing?"

   Guardiola on the sidelines was also dumbfounded. Are young people now so good at playing?

   "Maybe it's a guessing game to decide who will take the free kick?"

  Chen Ran also covered his face with his hands, as if he didn't know those two guys.

   Very meow, how can I have such a strange team member?
